Empty Sunflower Seeds?
in Plants
I cut a head off one of my Mongolian Sunflowers to collect its seeds. But most of them were just empty husks. Have a tried too early or am I just unlucky?

Yes there were bees on them. Ill have a look at another flower an see what that's like.
I can't see exactly from the photo, but empty husks either mean low pollination or the birds got there first!
The middle flowers are the last to develop and be pollinated.
